    I need to rant.

    I hear your frustration. My other half gets high-ish blood pressure. He's not diabetic and doesn't do any of the other factors they state eg drinking smoking weight etc so he was a loss as to how to lower it. One small change he's made that seems to be keeping it more stable is simply to drink...

    There's always eggs. Scrambled are OK in a microwave. I even do a version of poached by breaking one into half a mug of cold water. Timing can vary and you may have the odd explosion or hard cooked but at least it will be eggsciting (haha)

    Busy, bitty day. Frustrating as couldn't get access to village hall until this evening to start setting up for tomorrow. Felt like a lot of waiting. Fitted in a walk, ate some scrambled eggs, and a couple of sausages, and some cold chicken and a cup of bouillon. Can't quite remember in what...

    Does work-place sigma to diabetes exist?

    Imho there 2 different scenarios Type 1, hopefully, produces sympathy, empathy and support because most people know it "just happens" and life saving medication is essential. Type 2, however, is still seen as being self inflicted (often by overeating or poor lifestyle) hence a lot of T2s don't...

    Is a treat just a treat or a dreaded paradox?

    I find it helps me to remember that "treat" is a word heavily used by food marketing, who have spent years and billions finding exactly where to hit our emotional and comfort buttons, for their own profits. They have zero interest in our health. And this conditioning by them has been around all...

    We escaped all rain, even the odd showers on top of the hills out on Hirta (St Kilda). Absolutely loved the Outers. The wildflowers were stunning, though I imagine the winters are harsh. Got used to peace and quiet, and hated the day we came across 4 coach loads of Asian tourists from a cruise...
